"Dragonball AS: Destroyer Saga"
Chapter 10- "Saiya-jin vs. Majin"
By- Tiny
The ring wasn't really in need of any clearing or fixing up after the fight between two of the most powerful women on the Earth, so things were getting ready to begin again as the monks tended to the slightly injured Saiya-jin girls. The announcer had even dropped by to make sure that the competitors were alright, bringing a smile to everyone's faces as they watched the ring. Everything was back in order now, the two girls having been led back into the waiting area for the duration of the fights, leaving the ring open to begin the next round of the Budokai.
"Alright all you crazy fans, are you ready to the next round?" the announcer grinned, earning a roar from the crowd, "In this next round of competition, we have the son of a living legend in our midst! He is the son of legendary Budokai fighter Son Goku, winner of the 23rd Budokai and frequent competitor since then. Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear a big round of applause for Son Goten!"
The crowd broke out into a roar of cheering and several of the woman in the crowd threw undergarments at the formerly eligible Saiya-jin, earning angry growls from his girlfriend in the stands. Goten himself just grinned stupidly and waved to the masses as he made his way towards the ring, anxious to get his match over with so that he could move on to the next round of the Budokai. Dressed the way that he was, in the modified version of the Kame School gi, not to mention his bed-head hairstyle, Goten looked almost exactly like his late father, so the crowd was actually confused at first.
"Next up, ladies and gentlemen, is the most well-known fighter in this tournament, as he is fighting to defend his title against these others!" the announcer continued, "He was trained personally by multi-title champion Satan Hercule and even by our other contender's father, the powerful Son Goku. Let's hear a warm welcome for defending Budokai champion, Nijam Ubuu!"
The crowd had been simply contained when Goten and the other's before him had come out of the waiting area, but as soon as Ubuu stepped out of the waiting area everyone just lost it completely. The roar of the crowd was so intense that Sanil actually ripped his own ears off just to keep the noise out, earning envious glances from the other fighters nearby. The resurrected Majin just ignored as much, however, and stalked into the ring, his eyes locking with Goten's almost instantly as he felt the young Saiya-jin's aura rising in excitement.
The look of eagerness on the battlefield was something that Ubuu was very familiar with, having been trained by Goku and fighting with the Evil Shenlongs, but it was something else when a Saiya-jin had that look. Goten actually looked happy to be on the battlefield once more, having not used his powers in an all out fight since the ordeal with Majin Buu, but now he was finally going to get his chance. Ubuu wasn't going to make it easy on his old friend, however, as he raised his power up as well, a red aura surrounding his body as the Saiya-jin's eyes began to flash that familiar jade color.
"Alright guys, I want a good, clean match," the announcer beamed, "FIGHT!"
Ubuu hardly had time to register that the fight had begun before Goten flashed into Super Saiya-jin and rushed him, slamming his knee into the side of the Majin's head before he even got a chance to react. The dark-skinned fighter didn't much enjoy that fact very much as he flipped around and caught Goten in the chin, sending him back slightly only to have Goten use the momentum to elbow Ubuu in the forehead. Pain surged through the Majin's skull as he hit the tiled floor hard, cracking a few of the tiles as Goten landed gracefully to the side of him.
Goten found the sight of his father's prized student, the powerful resurrection of the fearsome Kid Buu, rubbing his skull in pain thanks to the blows that the Saiya-jin man had inflicted. It had pained Goten greatly when his father had run off with Ubuu to train him in the ways of battle and left him all alone, but despite that Goten still loved his father and was determined to prove once and for all how powerful he was. Only one of Goku's students was going to be walking away from this match the winner, and Goten was determined that he was going to be that one.
"Clear to see that your Goku's son, only someone trained by him could have broken my defenses that easily," Ubuu grinned, "And you aren't even at your full power yet!"
"I don't think you could handle my full power Ubuu, the only ones who can do that are the other Saiya-jin," Goten chuckled, "Or do you have some kind of death wish that you're waiting to fulfill?"
"Let's find out," Ubuu smirked, powering up slightly, "Time to see which of us truly is the most powerful!"
"You read my mind!" Goten grinned stupidly, "Let's do this thing!"
Ubuu let loose a loud cry as he pushed his power up to it's maximum instantly, his red aura flaring out all around him as he rocketed across the ring, slamming his fist hard into Goten's left cheek. The Saiya-jin hadn't finished powering up yet and soared across the remainder of the ring, skidding to a stop just before falling out of the ring, just in time to see Ubuu phase overhead and bring his hands down. Goten wasn't about to let the Majin get the better of him, however, and drove his knees into Ubuu's chest, propelling the powerful warrior into the air.
While the current champ was rocketing through the air, Goten pushed his powers out fully, allowing his already well-toned muscles to fill out even more as blue bolts of ki shot out all around him. Power coursed through the Saiya-jin's veins as he grinned the same grin his father had worn so many times before, his jade eyes staring up excitedly at the now halted opponent he had waited so long to fight. Now was not the time to hold back when he couldn't afford to, and Goten wasn't about to let the Majin get the better of him again.
Ubuu was furious that he had been gotten the better of yet again as well, glaring dangerously down at Goten as he began to take off towards the Saiya-jin, a yellow ki blast charging in his left hand as he moved. Goten didn't seem too worried about things either, his aura remaining calm and collected even as the Majin began to close in, his jade eyes fixated on his opponent. Something was up with the Saiya-jin man as a soft smile played over his lips, his golden aura suddenly shooting out all over the place as Ubuu came within a few feet.
"Time to end this, Saiya-jin!" Ubuu smirked, pushing his energy attack out, "Sorry it had to come to this!"
"So am I, Ubuu," Goten grinned, raising two fingers to his forehead, "I guess Dad didn't teach you everything he knew..."
Ubuu's eyes widened with shock as he let the ki blast loose towards Goten only to have it explode harmlessly on the tiled arena floor, Goten having completely disappeared from everyone's sight. Gohan, who was watching from above the waiting area with a smile on his face, knew exactly what was going on but didn't say anything as he waited for Goten to make his move. Everyone else, on the other hand, was looking around in confusion as Ubuu stood silently glancing around in the ring, not understanding what was going on just yet.
"Where did he go?" Ubuu gulped, sweat pouring off his forehead, "Master Goku never had time to teach anyone that move, so how did Goten manage to learn it when even I didn't?"
"No time to answer, just know that I did!" Goten's voice chuckled, "Time to finish this match!"
Ubuu looked back behind him a split second to late as Goten's hand smacked into the side of his face, sending the Majin soaring out of the ring and into the nearby wall with overwhelming speeds. Several large bricks fell out of place as the Majin's pained form fell down from the wall, collapsing to his knees on the grassy turf as he fought off the pain that surged through his body. Goten had hardly even touched him the whole match, even after they went to full power, and yet he had still managed to win, proving once and for all that he was most definitely Goku's son.
The crowd was speechless as they watched the young Saiya-jin, who had gone back down to his basic level, and walked quietly into the waiting area with Ubuu limping in shortly there after. Bra immediately rushed over to Ubuu when he came into the room groggily, glaring daggers at Goten while Trunks' hair bristled at the sight of his sister fawning over the resurrected Majin. Goten, on the other hand, was too overjoyed from his victory to care about any of that as he stared up at the ceiling, the same smile on his face that he had worn as a young child at his first tournament.
"I did it Dad, I finally proved myself," Goten smiled, "I hope that now, wherever you are, you can see just how powerful we've all become..."
Somewhere in the Other World, sitting around a large display screen that gazed out upon the Budokai area, a younger looking man with dark, bed-head hair watched the fights with longing in his eyes. The man was dressed in a suit of armor from the looks of things, his entire body covered in a blue bodysuit but with a hard, white-and-gold chest piece over the upper portion with matching boots and gloves. He also had a long, brown tail that swished about every few seconds, eagerness apparent from the way it waged like a dog waiting for it's master to come home.
There was a young woman sitting beside him, dressed in a purple kimono with her long, raven hair tied up high on her head so as to keep it out of her delicate-looking face, though the man thought it looked good that way. She was sipping on a cup of tea of some kind or another as the fights kept going, having watched the last two with great interest. She occasionally would yell at the screen when a dark-haired fighter would get injured, but was currently quite calm and content looking as her partner's face spread out in a wide, goofy grin matching that of the person on the screen was sporting.
"You've never had to prove yourself to me Goten, but I am proud of you all," the man smiled, his eyes welling with tears, "Fight well and prosper now without me, my son..."

Author's Notes: I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, cause I really enjoyed writing the sort of struggle for title of Goku's greatest student between Goten and Ubuu, both of whom were trained by him. Goten ended up winning, cause I felt he needed a break and that he should be given the chance to prove himself, since he is now one of the only Z fighters to know Instant Transmission. The next chapter will feature the continuation of the tournament with Bonzar facing Trunks, but why does Gohan feel he recognizes this new student of the Kame School?
You'll have to stay tuned to find out, though some of you already know, but until then it's time to recognize the readers!
Draco the Destroyer: Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Pan or Bra, though I like the idea of Bra as a fighter better than this little pansy that they show in the series. Thanks for commenting so highly about the way the chapter was written, cause I didn't really feel it came out very well. Hope to see you again soon!
chris: Yeah, I like what I did to Sanil, because every generation has to have that one arrogant asshole in it and I figured he was the best one for the job! As for how Bra got so strong so fast, she does have better training facilities than Pan and there is also the Room of Spirit and Time, but it was vital to make her slightly more powerful. Makes for a more interesting fight. Thanks for reviewing and I'll see you again soon!
Vangey: Thanks, look forward to more reviews from you in the future!
